'POST-TRUTH', 'A HUMAN HISTORY OF RELIGION', & THE TWO HALVES OF LIFE

BOOK DISCUSSION ON NOVEMBER 11th 


Wychwood Circle started out as a monthly discussion based on some agreed reading and occasionally we return to that format. This time, as a departure from the norm, we are selecting several books and inviting people to come and present them - which we hope will nevertheless give rise to some interesting discussion. For those who prefer to come forearmed the 3 books under discussion will be the following - click on the title for a description and/or review: 

FALLING UPWARD: A SPIRITUALITY FOR THE TWO HALVES OF LIFE                 
The author is Franciscan priest (with more than a passing knowledge of psychologist Carl Jung) and founder of the Centre for Action and Contemplation Richard Rohr.
Described by Huffington Post as 'timely, riveting, enlightening and necessary', the book is by American-Iranian Reza Aslan


by economist, journalist and broadcaster Evan Davis.


Intimate knowledge of these texts will NOT be required.  Someone will describe the main ideas.  But you may wish to dip in ahead of November 11th in order to be as well informed as possible.
